The staff, Johnny, Oscar, Pamela, the cooks, the maids, the waiters, everyone on the front desk, and Ramon. The food service location security is the best in the DR. I have stayed their many times I feel it is my second home.

Staff was excellent, the location was good as it related to the
colonial strip, however, I didn't expect it to be located on an
isolated street.

This property has been on Booking.com since Jun 23, 2011.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This allows us to verify that our reviews come from real guests like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or their comfortable room than someone who’s stayed at the property?

We want you to share your story, with both the good and the not-so-good. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Tips for writing a great review

Give us details. People love to hear about the little things. Was the air conditioning working? Was there a chocolate on your pillow? We like long reviews, so you should try to write at least 50 words.

Be candid. Give us your honest opinion. We’ll never remove a review just because it’s negative. We promise.

Be relevant. The best reviews provide constructive information that helps other travelers make better choices. Stay on topic and avoid content that others might find offensive.

Sometimes we'll remove reviews if they include any of the following:

Objectionable material. This includes insulting or discriminatory remarks, swearing, or other offensive language.

Private information. To protect your (and others') privacy we do not display reviews that include email addresses or phone numbers.

Sensitive information. We don't display reviews that contain information with possible legal implications. This includes references to suspected illegal conduct or allusions to lost or stolen items. In such sensitive cases, please contact our Customer Service Team, who will be happy to help.

Irrelevant topics. This includes promotional content and politically sensitive subjects.

In some rare cases, neither the written review nor the review score can be displayed. This only happens if:

Key information is missing. A few review questions are mandatory. If these aren’t answered, we aren't able to calculate a fair review score, so we can't display the review.

You didn’t stay at the property. When necessary, we’ll confirm this information with both you and the property owner.

You made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. We won’t post yours. If you reviewed a different property from the one you booked, let us know. We can fix it so that your review shows with the right property.

The review is a fake. If there's any indication that a review is not authentic or is in any way fraudulent, it will be flagged during the moderation process.

The staff, generally, are very friendly.

Very weak Wifi in the rooms. They've been saying for years that the owner plans to improve this. It has not happened.
Breakfast buffet has scrambled eggs every day, but very poorly cooked.
The bed in my room was soft and squeaky.

Safety and security are paramount when traveling to exotic countries like Dominican Republic. So it was a relief when I got to my hotel and met the friendly staff who greeted me with smiles and the best apple champagne I have ever tasted. From where to eat to making sure you are super comfortable the team at hodelpa cater to your every need. I have been back four times this year already -if you want to feel safe and comfortable hodelpa is the place to be.

I love the staff and how helpful they were. From the arrival point to the moment you leave you feel safe and I think when you travel to countries with language differences safety is paramount. I feel so comfortable and apart from the friendly staff the cleansiness of the hotel was refreshing. Whatever needs were they were met I have been there four times this year and I heading there again soon with a group of international performers. Go and enjoy :)

Unfortunately at the present time the road outside the hotel is being renovated as part of the general renovations being carried out in Zona Colonial. But in a few weeks time this problem will have moved elsewhere.

The location is good! The included breakfast is adequate. After 2 days of many problems, the manager did try to make it right after telling them I was checking out and going to another hotel. She offered a discount, on an upgraded room for the last night. In my opinion, the entire stay should have discounted with no wifi in the room as advertised.

I prebooked with booking.com, but on check in they couldnt find my reservation. No welcome champagne that I had read about. The room pics were misleading and the room was disappointing. The room description said terrace with city views, but the only view was an abandoned building, trash and electrical wires. The bathroom and shower was the smallest I have ever seen in all of my travels! No wifi in the room and was reported several times with no fix. Many other good hotel options, stay somewhere else!

Staff was excellent, the location was good as it related to the
colonial strip, however, I didn't expect it to be located on an
isolated street.

I paid for a suite, but it was not nearly what I expected for the amount
paid. The pictures of the room are more enticing than the actual room.
This hotel was rated high among other hotels in colonial zone, I'm
scared to see what the other hotel accommodations looked like.
